DMPC Auditors Letters: How They Can Turbocharge Your Business

Imagine writing a proposal to assist prospective clients in a care management procurement or evaluation. Several questions in the RFP ask about how you intend to measure outcomes. This is especially important in uncertain economic environments because the prospect’s CFO will be insisting on cost justification of any wellness or disease management program.

Your competitors provide fairly generic responses. You, on the other hand, are partnered with the (1) person most widely credited with having invented disease management and the author of the only book on the topic of outcomes who (2) will review all vendor contractual outcomes methodologies and write an “auditor’s letter” only if they are valid and (3) backs each letter with a $10,000 guarantee of validity (4) who can get the most prestigious national program award for your customers whose programs save money.

Further, there is no charge to you unless you get the business. All assistance with business development and RFP responses is gratis. That confidence reflects the DMPC auditor’s letter track record. Though no benefits consultant has used an auditor’s letter before, here is a statistic from a combination of several health plans: No health plan providing a DMPC auditor’s letter for a case has ever lost that case to a vendor or another health plan. Major regional health plans use them, as do several vendors and even a few large employers for their own accounts, such as Procter & Gamble. (Google on “disease management auditors letters” for a partial list.)

Finally, we can help you replace consultants already working with your target accounts. All you need to do is get a copy of outcomes reports showing large savings that passed muster with others and bring them to DMPC. We deconstruct them so elegantly that on one occasion a customer asked their previous benefits consultant for their money back.
